The World Tour - Spain won.

   Rotterdam - Amsterdam
  
  All the top teams gathered in the Netherlands for the World Tour stage Rotterdam - Amsterdam. The best sprinters with the finest lead outs were ready for this race.
  Everybody wanted the win, but there was more at stake. The overall World Tour classification. You could feel that Spain did everything to stay with Belgium. England and the Netherlands tried their best to surprise the Spaniards. But in the streets of Amsterdam, Canada took advantage of the fact that the teams were looking at each other. Evan Topper (Quick Step Minded) jumped away from the pack to get an easy win ahead of Englands Cadman Kantor (thedutchies) and Belgian Kristian Roels (California Mist). Ronaldinho Viana (radu) finished nineth securing the victory for Spain. Spanish national manager was delighted, SoKoM from

CGPBMARCH was a very happy manager today.
  
   Ningde - Luoyuan
  
  Division B was filled with enthousiast team that travelled to China for the stage in Ningde. Not many teams took time to do that but, those that did made us forget about those that did not.
  In Luoyuan a big crowd awaited the riders. And they saw a bunch sprint because the teams kept the peloton together for the entire race. Nobody escaped from the big sprinter teams.
  Sveinþór Ásson (Team Legends) was the strongest rider and took the win for Iceland. He beat Irish Drew Weis (Burren Connemara) and Hungarian Lipták Aurél (Team Katona).
  The teams and national managers are preparing themselves for the last race next week. But we would like to congratulate team Spain for the overall victory.

Optimus Prime at 02:34 10/3-2013
  thats because of 150p won in Oslo GP WT last season. but this ranking from Noppes is only considering results from this season

  Spain won. Great. Nice to see the artricle. Thanks.
  
  SprintingKings ?????? Why the insults ???


Cremtec at 09:05 11/3-2013
  Congrats Spain, let's try to put up more of a fight next year!


SprintingKings at 16:47 11/3-2013
  Please explain what was insulting about what I said cause I don't get it


Ambitus Ultimo at 19:05 11/3-2013
  Well done Spain. (To SprintingKings - It is insulting to suggest a general lack of intelligence across a whole nation.)


SprintingKings at 21:25 11/3-2013
  You must be kidding me, isn't it clear that that was not ment insulting? I did not ment stupid as in dumb but as in lame or something like that. Just like you would call your brother stupid after losing a game from him.


CCFC at 21:27 11/3-2013
  I think something is lost in translation here, because I don't think he means that they are stupid as in not having much intelligence. He just think it's stupid (irritating) that they won. Or I might be wrong :p


SprintingKings at 21:31 11/3-2013
  That is exactly what I ment Einar, thanks for clearing that.


Glamourade at 21:40 11/3-2013
  Ok, matter clarified and forgotten, but looks like the firt.
  
  Thanks and Bye

  I'll translate that into Spanish without the "lost in translation" thing:
  
  ¡Malditos españoles!
  
  On Charles' defense, I have to admit that "stupid" is a much stronger word in Spanish than it's in English.


SprintingKings at 22:06 11/3-2013
  Well we will always have a language barrier. Kinda funny ain't it?


TheRhys at 18:30 12/3-2013
